For Alexander, the only other option they'd have had would have been for him to speak Greek, and there to be subtitles in Hindi translating what he said. Had they shown him speaking English, that'd have been even more ridiculous. Incidentally, do they keep Alexander's name intact, or do they call it Sikander? B'cos I can't imagine people @ that time translating Alexander to be Sikander.
I digress. But here, they're not doing the language as it existed. Yeah, they all spoke Sanskrit, whereas this serial is in Hindi, but at least, shudh Hindi is expected. I don't think Hindi as a language existed then, but at least, use as many Sanskrit loan words as possible. Such as 'ashwa' for horse.
Ok, the ji's I can digest. But Jarasandha telling Sishupal that 'koi kshatriya rishta se mahaan nei hote, karm se hote'? They could at least have had him say 'koi kshatriya rakt sambandh se mahaan nei hote...' 😉😆 Soon, you'll have insaans, bandas and what not 🤣
But Krishna's 'premyudh' takes the cake, not just for language, but for basic concept 🤣
